Definitions
- the present invention relates to the polymerization of olefins.
- the present invention relates to slurry or particle form polymerization.
- the present invention relates to olefin polymerization using a continuous loop-type reactor.
- the present invention relates to a novel method for charging prepolymerized polymerization catalyst to the polymerization zone.
- a number of the later generation high activity olefin polymerization catalysts are prepared by processes which result in extremely fine catalyst particles.
- the use of such fine catalyst particles in actual commercial polymerization has often led to various problems including the production of undesirable levels of fine polymer and undesired difficulties in handling the catalyst.
- prepolymer on the catalyst introduces its own separate problems. For example, it has been noted that the presence of the prepolymer can result in plugged feeding lines and feeding difficulties in mud pots which arise from the tendency of such prepolymerized catalysts to bridge in the restrictive openings of either mud pots or feed lines. These problems become particularly evident as the level of prepolymer on the catalyst is increased.
- the feeding of catalyst slurries can even be a problem for particulate olefin polymerization catalysts that have not been subjected to prepolymerization, for example particulate chromium-containing catalysts.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an improved method for charging a slurry of particulate olefin polymerization catalyst to the reaction zone.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a process for polymerizing olefins with a particulate olefin polymerization catalyst and a particulate diluent which has a less adverse effect upon the properties of the ultimate polymer than diluents heretofore used.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a process for polymerizing olefins which allows one to use olefin polymerization catalysts containing much higher levels of prepolymer than have generally been used in the past.
- a process for polymerizing olefins comprising charging a liquid slurry of particulate olefin polymerization catalyst through a restrictive opening into a polymerization zone wherein said catalyst is contacted with at least one olefin under suitable polymerization conditions, wherein said slurry of prepolymerized olefin polymerization catalyst has been prepared by combining a refractory oxide powder with a suitable liquid and said particulate catalyst, said refractory oxide powder being selected from the group consisting of fumed silica, fumed titanium dioxide, and fumed alumina and being added to the slurry in an amount sufficient to improve the flow of the catalyst through the restrictive opening.
- the present invention is considered to be particularly applicable for processes employing olefin polymerization catalysts of the type disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,325,837, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- An especially preferred type of olefin polymerization catalyst is prepared by contacting magnesium dichloride and a titanium alkoxide in a liquid to obtain a solution, then contacting the solution with an alkylaluminum halide to obtain a solid, then contacting the solid with an olefin to obtain a prepolymerized solid and then contacting the resulting prepolymerized solid with titanium tetrachloride.
- the titanium alkoxide is a titanium tetrahydrocarbyl oxide of the formula Ti(OR) 4 wherein each R is individually selected from an alkyl group containing from about 1 to about 10 carbon atoms, more preferably about 1 to about 4 carbon atoms. It is also currently preferred to employ as the precipitating agent an alkylaluminum halide of the formula R m AlZ 3-m wherein R is a alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, Z is a halogen, hydrogen, or hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 8 carbons and m is a number in the range of 1 to 3.
- Such prepolymerized catalyst can have the prepolymer deposited thereon by prepolymerization such as taught in the aforementioned U.S. Pat. No. 4,325,837. It is also within the scope of the present invention to have the prepolymer deposited upon the catalyst by various other means such as plasma or flame spraying of a polymer coating, or the slurrying of the catalyst with a polymer solution followed by the addition of a countersolvent to precipitate the polymer.
- the currently preferred process involves prepolymerizing and then treating the resulting catalyst with titanium tetrachloride. In an especially preferred embodiment the resulting titanium tetrachloride-treated catalyst is then contacted with a organometallic reducing agent before the catalyst is introduced into the polymerization zone.
- the solid is washed with a hydrocarbon after the treatment with the organometallic compound.
- This pretreatment of the catalyst with the reducing agent has been found to reduce the tendency of the catalyst to cause reactor fouling during polymerization.
- the currently preferred organometallic reducing agents are those of the formula R m AlZ 3-m wherein R is a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 8 carbons, Z is a halogen, hydrogen, or hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 8 carbons, and m is a number in the range of 1 to 3.
- the currently most preferred reducing agents for this step are triethylaluminum and diethylaluminum chloride.
- the weight percent of prepolymer can vary over a wide range, typically in the range of about 1 to about 95 weight percent, more generally in the range of about 1 to about 80 weight percent, and still more preferably in the range of about 1 to about 50 weight percent.
- the particulate catalyst is combined with a suitable amount of the refractory oxide powder.
- suitable refractory oxide powders include the fumed, or pyrogenic, silicas, aluminas, and titanium dioxides.
- the currently preferred refractory oxide is fumed silica. Most typically the refractory oxide that is employed would have an average primary particle size in the range of about 0.001 micron to about 0.1 micron, more preferably about 0.001 micron to about 0.03 micron.
- the currently preferred fumed silica has an average primary particle size in the range of about 0.005 to about 0.02 microns, still more preferably about 0.005 to about 0.015 microns.
- the catalyst and the refractory oxide powder are combined in a liquid.
- a liquid that is suitable for use in the olefin polymerization can be employed.
- substantially dry, i.e. anydrous, organic liquids can be employed.
- Some typical examples include dichloromethane, hexane, heptane, isobutane, cyclohexane, and the like.
- the weight ratio of the fumed silica to the solid catalyst is preferred for the weight ratio of the fumed silica to the solid catalyst to be in the range of about 0.05/1 to about 0.30/1, still more preferably about 0.12/1 to about 0.25/1.
- the slurry of the catalyst and the refractory oxide powder is employed in polymerization using generally the same conditions that have been used in the past with slurries of catalyst.
- the invention is particularly useful for the homopolymerization or copolymerization of mono-1-olefins. Olefins having 2 to 18 carbon atoms would most often be used.
- the invention is considered particularly applicable to slurry or particle form polymerization processes, especially continuous polymerization processes such as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,152,872 and 4,424,341, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- the fumed silicas which were obtained from Cabot Corporation were either used as supplied or dried in the oven overnight.
- the aluminum oxide and titanium dioxide were obtained from Degussa.
- the samples were shaken to mix the additive and the catalyst thoroughly and then allowed to settle.
- the initial evaluations were done by tipping flasks containing the resulting mixture and comparing the angle of repose of the solids.
- the fumed refractory oxides were all found to provide improvements in catalyst flow.
- the larger particle size Grade G alumina flowed poorly. At levels similar to those used for HS-5, i.e. 5 g alumina/20 g catalyst, no flow improvement was demonstrated.
- At larger amounts, i.e. 50 g alumina/20 g catalyst only a very slight improvement, if any, was noted.
- Catalyst A contained about 10 weight percent prepolymer.
- Catalyst B was a commercial catalyst containing prepolymer.
- Catalyst C was a catalyst which had been treated with diethylaluminum chloride after the titanium tetrachloride treatment, Catalyst C contained about 40 weight percent prepolymer.
- Catalyst D also contained prepolymer.
- a slurry of the catalyst was well shaken and mixed with varying amounts of the refractory oxide and when employed, antistatic agent in a liquid diluent.
- the antistatic agent Stadis 450 was obtained from DuPont. From the solid weight percent of the original catalyst slurry, determination of the weight percentage of refractory oxide based on a total solid weight was possible.
- the polymerizations were carried out at 90° C. in a 3.8 liter autoclave reactor. The reactor was prepared for polymerization by heating to 110° C. for one hour. The reactor was then cooled to room temperature where it was flushed with nitrogen free isobutane.
- the melt index (MI) and high load melt index (HLMI) were measured using ASTM-1238 conditions of 190/2.16 and 190/21.6 respectively.
- Bulk densities of the polymer were measured by weighing a 100 ml graduated cylinder in which the polymer fluff had been lightly tapped.
- Polymer densities were determined according to ASTM-D-1505 using compression molded discs of polymer. Corrected polymer densities were obtained by normalizing the polymer densities for a MI value of one. Titanium and chloride content of the polymer and the solution above the catalyst were determined by X-ray fluorescence. The results of the various polymerizations are summarized in Table 2.
- runs 2 and 6 respectively represent control polymerizations using comonomer and no refractory oxide. It will be noted that runs 1 and 3 were polymerizations which did not employ the introduction of hexene comonomer.
- a comparison of runs 2 and 5 shows that the fumed silica M-5 caused no significant change in the titanium and chloride levels.
- the comparison of runs 6 with runs 8-11 shows that the fumed silica HS-5 did not result in any significant change in the titanium or chloride levels.
- the data also shows that the addition of the fumed oxides and/or the antistatic agent did not have an adverse effect on either comonomer incorporation, catalyst activity, or polymer bulk density. This is in contrast to observations that have been made in the past when the polymerizations were conducted in the presence of the larger particle size high surface area silica such as Davidson Grade 952 silica gel.
- Other work with titanium catalysts has demonstrated that even when Cab-O-Sil HS-5 fumed silica is used at a silica to catalyst weight ratio of 0.175/1, the polymer properties were essentially equivalent, within the scope of experimental error, to those obtained using the catalyst without the fumed silica.
- Example III Using the same technique as described in Example III, the effect of three other silicas on the flow rate of the catalyst slurry were evaluated.
- the three silicas evaluated were larger primary particle size silicas, namely Sylox® 2, Syloid® 63, and Syloid® 244. Those silicas had average primary particle sizes of 2 to 3 microns, 9 microns, and 3 microns respectively.
- the Sylox® 2 provided a better flow rate than the Syloid® 244 or Syloid® 63; however, that flow rate was not nearly as good as the flow rate obtained with the same weight percent of Cab-O-Sil HS-5.
- the Cab-O-Sil HS-5 provided a superior flow rate to the larger primary particle size silicas.
- One of the particulate chromium-containing catalysts that has been used in the past is prepared by treating a porous silica such as Davidson 952 grade silica with chromium.
- a porous silica such as Davidson 952 grade silica
- a number of runs were carried out using a procedure like that described in Example III.
